The French judge Henri Boguet described an apple possessed by demons in 1602. A few years later, Italian Jesuits tried to calculate the physical dimensions of hell. These and many other ideas from the late Middle Ages and the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries seem absurd today, but they made good sense to people at the time. This book explains how beliefs that are strange to us were once widely accepted. It sets out the intellectual world of men and women in the distant past, and shows how their assumptions and expectations allowed them to believe things that we cannot: that heresy and witchcraft posed a threat to society, that demons carried people through the air, and that the dead occasionally wandered from their graves. None of these ideas were mad. They simply reflected the belief system of the medieval and Renaissance world. In fact, an understanding of the rational basis of beliefs that now seem absurd suggests that modern ideas may one day seem equally ridiculous. In Strange Histories, assumptions about the fixed quality of human nature are exposed, and readers are challenged to question their own conception of the world.…

Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. HOMER, SEAN Jacques Lacan. London: Routledge, 2005. 8vo., x, 155 p. Some lines are underlined in some pages. Paperback. Very good ISBN: 9780415256179 CATALOG: Philosophy KEYWORDS: philosophy Jacques Lacan is one of the most challenging and controversial of contemporary thinkers, as well as the most influential psychoanalyst since Freud. Lacanian theory has reached far beyond the consulting room to engage with such diverse disciplines as literature, film, gender and social theory. This book covers the full extent of Lacan's career and provides an accessible guide to Lacanian concepts and his writing on: the imaginary and the symbolic; the Oedipus Complex and the meaning of the phallus; the subject and the unconscious; the real; sexual difference. Locating Lacan's work in the context of contemporary French thought and the history of psychoanalysis, Sean Homer's Jacques Lacan is the ideal introduction to this influential theorist.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. xiii, 158 pp, 1 leaf (ads). Original boards. Near Fine, without dust jacket (as issued). Routledge Studies in the History of Economics 75. New price: US$150.00. 'Throughout the history of economic ideas, it has often been asserted that experimentation is impossible, yet, in fact, history shows that the idea of 'experimentation' has always been important, and as such has been interpreted and put to use in many ways. Rich in historical detail, the essays in this topical volume deal with such issues as laboratory experimentation, the observed transition from a post-war economics to a contemporary discipline, the contrasting positions of Friedrich Hayek and Oskar Morgenstern, the socio-economic experiments proposed by Ernest Solvay and Knut Wicksell, and a rigorous examination of the way in which economic models can or cannot be construed as valid experiments producing useful knowledge. A testament to the variety of ways in which experimentation has been of importance in the creation of economic knowledge, these wide-ranging essays will interest those seeking to expand their historical understanding of the discipline, be they theorists, historians, philosophers, advanced students or researchers' (Routledge Web site).
